Subject: kernel/crash_core: suppress unknown crashkernel parameter warning

When booting with crashkernel= on the kernel command line a warning
similar to

[    0.038294] Kernel command line: ro console=ttyS0 crashkernel=256M
[    0.038353] Unknown kernel command line parameters "crashkernel=256M", will be passed to user space.

is printed.  This comes from crashkernel= being parsed independent from
the kernel parameter handling mechanism.  So the code in init/main.c
doesn't know that crashkernel= is a valid kernel parameter and prints this
incorrect warning.  Suppress the warning by adding a dummy early_param
handler for crashkernel=.
